Commissioners also signed a title sheet (Item 26) for a CERB project spanning the Canadian River on Luther Road; staff noted the project is expected to be let in the spring.
Juvenile Bureau contract renewal: A representative from the Juvenile Bureau presented a routine renewal for the bureau's contract school arrangement with Oklahoma City Public Schools, noting negotiation of new contract language earlier in the year; the board approved the renewal.
Executive session and confidential action: The board recessed into executive session and later returned to take action on item 31 regarding a confidential communication; the motion passed.
Employee recognitions: The board approved two employee-of-the-month recognitions: Melanie Deeney (District 3) and Jeff Lacey (County IT/Tyler Munis administrator transition), both introduced by district staff.
PBA session: After the BOCC meeting the group moved into a Public Buildings Authority session that approved minutes and recurring items, granted use of Lincoln event space for a resale event (June 4'12), received audited financial statements from DWG, and approved Ryan Jasper as an alternate.
All motions described above were approved by voice vote where recorded. Where the transcript records a voice vote and notes all three commissioners were present, the record indicates unanimous approval.
